Heavy Bells

Heavy Bells Lyrics

Mama knew my mind, would know this song
Mama knew my mind, would know this song
I muscle holler and a moan
I muscle holler and a moan
Black chords in the night
Daddy burnt the dirt, but the seed survived
Daddy burnt the dirt, but the seed survived
Muscle holler and a moan
I muscle holler and a moan
Black chords in the night

I know that old catholic tone
I know that old catholic tone
The heavy bells
The heavy bells
The heavy bells are tolling out a tune
The heavy bells
The heavy bells
Oh, God
I felt that metal move
You’re gonna wake up
You’re gonna wake up
You’re gonna wake up
Find the heavy bells
Toll their tune for you too

Black sounds shake upon his folds
Black sounds shake upon his folds
Hear that nerve hound moan
I hear that nerve hound moan
Chop talking in the night
Blood and honey fixed to his beard
Chaser to the taste
I’ve come to fear
Hear that nerve hound moan
I hear that nerve hound moan
Chop talking in the night

He knows that old catholic tone
He knows that old catholic tone
The heavy bells
The heavy bells
The heavy bells are tolling out a tune
The heavy bells
The heavy bells
Oh, God
I felt that metal move
You’re gonna wake up
You’re gonna wake up
You’re gonna wake up
Find the heavy bells
Toll their tune for you too
